― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“True love never forces.”
― William P. Young, The Shack

“You... were created to be loved. So for you to live as if you were unloved is a limitation, not the other way around... Living unloved is like clipping a bird's wing and removing its ability to fly... A bird is not defined by being grounded but by his ability to fly. Remember this, humans are defined not by their limitations, but by the intentions I have for them; not by what they seem to be, but by everything it means to be created in my image. Love is NOT the limitation; love is the flying. I AM love. ”
― William P. Young, The Shack

“Grace doesn't depend on suffering to exist, but where there is suffering you will find grace in many facets and colors.”
